INTRODUCTION

Building refurbishment is still a new phenomenon in Malaysia. However, in

overseas country like European Union and United Kingdom was being widely used

building refurbishment. This is because there are many old building which can be

repair and maintenance. Building refurbishment and adaptation like maintenance,

repair, restoration and extension is known as repair and maintenance.

There are few factors that make the refurbishment project will be need. For

example, deterioration of the building, Obsolescence of building and the economic

cycle like inflation, interest rates, rates of economic growth and change in customersrequirement. It is also help to retain buildings of architecture value and it may be less

expensive than new building. For every building which has been change in use

through refurbishment, the extraction of raw materials and the manufacturing

process and energy involved in converting these into a completed replacement

building are voided to the undoubted benefit of the environment.

When doing the refurbishment we must consider special planning, design and

construction needs. This is important to make sure the refurbishment work go on

track and know the cost to do it. Usually, work required to refurbish of existing

building need less time than the alternative of demolition, site clearance and the

construction of new building.

Administrative offices of faculty law are a building which has been

refurbishment from food court to office space. The internal bodies in UiTM involve

help to make this project become efficiently. However, the effectiveness of

implementing the process is still in question which each organization has set up the

process in different ways.

2.1 OBJECTIVE AND REASON WHY OF REFURBISHMENT

The objective of the refurbishment is to provide office space for faculty law to

do administrative works. This is because the faculty law dont get enough space to

allocate its office. The refurbishment also intends to improve the function and safety

of the building. The building was being repair and renovate by contractor and sub-

contractor. According to unit facility UiTM Shah Alam the refurbishment was is made

by according to request of end user to them.

SHAH ALAM WHICH HAVE BEEN CHANGED FROM COLLEGE CEMPAKAFOOD COURT.

2.2 PROCESS OF REFURBISHMENT WORKS

Refurbishments works only will be done when application from end user or by

the university itself. Usually end user will sent application to manager of facilities

management to upgrade or to make refurbishments of the building. The manager


12/17

facilities management will send the application to project department. This

department will decided which officer will be conducted to the application. The

selected of officer is depend on knowledge and have courses must be attend. The

officers are selected by head of project department.

After this stage, officer, head of project department and other people who

responsible with the project will go on site to check the real condition of the building.

Sometimes, they will give the project immediately to contractor. The cost to be

estimate is difficult to get because we must refer to Jawatan Kuasa Ubahsuai

Dalaman (JKUDL). JKUDL will make a meeting to determine the budget was being

approved. After all process was be agreed the next process will be conducted until

the contractor will be choose. This budget is depending on budget of Kementerian

Pengajian Tinggi (KPT). If no budget, the faculty also can use their fund to construct

the refurbishment project. For refurbishment in the UiTM which just internal only, no

need to make application to local authority.

2.3 PROBLEM OCCURS AFTER REFURBISHMENT

There are some problem occur after refurbishment of the college Cempaka to

be change to administrative of faculty law, UiTM Shah Alam. According to the

building user in the past 2 years, the ceiling at first floor was being collapse and

there was appear a leakage in the toilet at down stair. However, the facilities unit

was repair this failure. From our research we also see some crack at the wall of the

building. This happens maybe from installation of electrical appliances.

2.4 COMMENTS

STRENGTH

The building appearance and performance was improve when make refurbishment.

There space of food court which before appear not attractive, now it was be divided

into partition which consist of administrative office, gallery, seminar room, meeting

room, library, department deans room, store room, pantry and also record room.

The space area of building now is not like a food court anymore and looks like a

office place.

WEAKNESS

For fire safety requirement this building is less provided of fire safety device. This is

because there is less of equipment for fire protection for example fire extinguisher,

fire alarm, fire hydrant, hose reel system and emergency lighting.

OPPORTUNITY

This building is located near to faculty of law and cafeteria on the second floor of the

building. It also consists of surau for the staff and student to pray.

THREAT

If appear any fire spread in the building, the occupant will hard to extinguisher the

fire. This is because there is less provided of fire protection equipment.

CONCLUSION

As a conclusion we found that refurbishment for this building as to prolong maintain

of the building. Refurbishment happens in this building due the lack of space.

Besides that, the budget must have to do the refurbishment works. At the case study

is a very strategic location and very convenience for the occupants in the building.

RECOMMENDATION

For the recommendation, we think that, for this building must have a landscape for

the attraction to the people that entering this building. Moreover, to maintain this

building must have the schedule for preventive maintenance. For the fire safety at

this building must be improve due the safety does not fully carried out.
